[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had this problem too and the pediatrician wanted him eating for longer. I kept a damp wash cloth next to me and would gently touch his skin to keep him awake. It was our doctor's advice and it seemed to work. He's 10 now and I wish he slept more and ate less! [/quote] The lactation consultant who was a lifesaver in many ways had this tip, too. Cool washcloth on the feet. And stripb them down of necessary. It's important for them to stay awake long enough to at least empty one breast completely, so they get the extra fatty hind milk that will help with satiation and weight gain. That will also help you keep up your supply. Good luck![/quote]
